Woooo.. Someone answered, I was hoping so! Thanks for the info, I'm gonna try and play with it, but am sure I know way too little to fix it, but would love auto mount all to be fixed in muppyquickmount!!

Would be great to have an updated MuppyQuickmount.
I use it over pmount.
It an great app. to have _________________3.01 Fat Free / Fire Hydrant featherweight/ TXZ_pup / 431JP2012

Peace and Justice are two sides of the same coin.

I updated MuppyQuickmount.pet and also the "all in one" Muppyfiler-gtkbasic.pet.

Now also NTFS-drives should be mounted read-write, when the drives are mounted at startup automatically.

And vfat drives are mounted using the " -t vfat" option.
On fluppy, this was not needed though, as long filenames are displayed also without this option. So let me know please, if it fixes issue with long filenames on system, where the old version did not work.

By default, now all drives are mounted at startup.

If you don't want this, simply remove the file /root/Startup/muppyquickmount-all

When your Puppy is shutting down, everything is unmounted, if you don't want that too, then delete /etc/init.d/muppyquickmountmountall.

Thanks for your last messages and sorry for the late update, my job kept me busy...

Installing the attached pet package will enable the use of MuppyQuickMount on recent
Puppies. I prefer MuppyQuickMount over any other GUI utility of this kind because of
its speed, ease of use and general appearance. Which is why I am providing this update.

It contains
* blkid-2.23 from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/ (thanks to Médor
from the French side of the forum for discovering that Puppy's new default blkid was not
doing the job for MuppyQuickMount); this will allow MuppyQuickMount to correctly show
the file type of HD partitions; and

This slight change in MU's BASIC code enables MuppyQuickMount to recognize the
CD's and DVD's correctly.

After you've installed this update, if the optical drives still do not seem to mount once
they are listed in the CD/DVD panel,
- check that a data CD or DVD is in the drive...
- tick the < /mnt/ > mini-circle AND
- click the < Mount > button in the CD/DVD panel.
That should do it.

I successfully applied these updates to wary-5.5, wheezyPup, raringPup-3.9.9.2 and
rerwin's sulu (aka SuperLupu). With the attached update, MuppyQuickMount can now
be used in recent Puppies.

Seems very good. If I install the "three component" pet it works but does not display "Type" (all shown as unknown) but after I install your update it does show the types and shows swap state too.

Testing on Slacko 5.6

If I had one suggestion it would be that a checkbox to enable / disable the "mountall at boot time" feature would be really nice.

HI, greengeek.

Thanks for the illustrations. Much needed: some people actually do think in pictures.

To disable the "mountall at boot time" feature, there's nothing quite like the good old
brute force solution : go to the /root/Startup folder, spot the "mountall at boot time"
link, highlight it and hit your newly configured "delete" key! It's really simple!
(For us mere mortals: highlight, then hit the Cntrl-X combo!)

Invitation: if there still exists one (1) wxbasic programmer out there in the wild, (s)he
could grant greengeek's wish and mine, and insert a nice button in the MuppyQuick-
Mount interface and we wouldn't have to use brute force! Anyone?

(BTW, a BASIC programmer I am not: I just have an eye for out of fashion variables!)

You mentioned that the "three component" pet has bonus contents of Muppy_Filer, which I had not heard of, but it looks good. For those who have not seen it is a two pane file manager along the lines of emelfm:

Users of wary 5.3 and up may need this update instead. Here, the blkid version and
the corresponding library are lower than those of the above package, it's from a lupu
version, I believe, but it still gets the job done. Get it from here:

Credit for packaging this one goes to Médor from the French side of the forum.
(But don't worry, the package contains only the lib and my edit of MU's muppyfinddisks
script, so no human language is involved.)
